Apparently, I messed up the editing pretty bad the first time I tried to post, I even accidently include cheetah information in there... I can't edit so I delete my post and will repost the new version here. Hopefully this worked :

(moderator please delete cheetah information if it show up again)

Can't access the original paper but based on this table, mature brown bears appear to have less fast twitch muscles fibers than younger bears. The most striking difference is the lack of type IIx fiber in 10 years + bears for those specific 3 muscles. This would suggest that those 3 specifics muscles are far more powerful (relative to size) in younger bears than they are in matures bears.

@brotherbear 


''As for "fast twitch muscle fibers" I have been seeing this "term" and reading this "term" on so many posts and I am still completely in the dark. I knew a guy once who had a twitch; it's not a good thing.''
Haha, nice joke! Regarding fast twitchs muscles fibers, I can explain it as best as I can but I'm not an expert, will this view as off topic if I do it here? because I woudn't used bear as an exemple I don't have much data about them.

''I can assure you, it is the 10+ year old grizzly who has the strength to fight his way to a chosen she-bear or defend a carcass or a prime fishing location. Nothing weak about those older bears.''
No doubt about this, but viewing your post it seems you may not perfectly understand the difference between power and strenght, I'm I right?
